I visited Big Ben for the first time when I was in middle school, and it was a breathtaking view. As young as I was, the clock made me feel tiny whenever I looked up at it. Though, it also makes you think of London’s industrial history when seeing it. The gothic revival architecture used in the construction of the clock gives a very powerful, old time feeling. During the day, the clock is easily noticed due to its height and near gold color; though, at night, the clock fully illuminates and shines down onto the city. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and very memorable architecture.
